I feel pretty confident you'll still like the Mapleshade cord best, even against the cord with the Flavor 2 wire and Furutech ends. But $80 bucks for that cable Duster recommended is a STEAL, what with the Furutech ends costing MORE than $80 between them alone. I'd jump all over that one, for sure.
If you get the $85 cable, and if you find it a touch bright at all, swap the silver/copper Furutech Fi-11 Ag IEC end for a pure copper IEC and that should eliminate the brightness. The FI-11 Ag IEC was always just a tad bright for me, and Uncle Stu reminds us often about bi-metallic contacts and dissimilar materials used in plating can make a somewhat brighter presentation. Of course, you may want that. You may not. You'll certainly find out, if you get it. It might be perfect for your needs as is.
Best of luck, and report back when you've had a chance to compare the cables and their sonics.
Have fun!
